In campus speech, David Hogg says U.S. is stolen land, justifies illegal immigration

Anti-gun rights activist David Hogg often urges young people to take on the Second Amendment. But he’s picked up a few more topics to pontificate on recently.

In his latest talk Wednesday to students at University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth, with the midterm elections just weeks away, Hogg defended illegal immigrants, decried white politicians, and bemoaned American imperialism.

“I’m gonna talk to you guys not about the America we want to create, but the America we are going to create,” Hogg told the crowd, a mix of approximately 160 local high school students, UMass college students, administrators and the general public.

“Our generation has the ability to go out there this November, and every single election, to go out there and make America the country it is on paper, because it’s not,” he said.

His speech came at the same time as March For Our Lives is targeting college students in a massive voter-turnout effort…

“Mass shootings have been happening for the last couple of centuries, ever since the advent of the gun. If we want to talk about mass shootings one of the first things we have to acknowledge is the battle of Wounded Knee, where over 100 Native Americans were slaughtered by the United States government,” he told the students. “We also have to acknowledge the fact that disproportionately Native Americans are underrepresented in our government and we also have to acknowledge how wrong it is that we call people illegal on stolen land.”

Comments

Historically you can claim that just about all land has been stolen.
There is a happy solution for everyone. Hogg should just move. Lots of unoccupied land in Antarctica. Get yourself a nice 160 acre homestead.

Little Davy really does need to go back to school and learn about all the history he missed the first time. Such as the fact that the natives we found on the land during the predominately white, Euro-centric Western Expansion were not the original inhabitants of that land, but usurpers who took it, by force of arms, from others, who were themselves usurpers who took it by force of arms, a pattern going back for countless generations.

Little Davy lives in Florida. How does he propose to apportion all that land to the aboriginal inhabitants including the Apalachee, Calusa, Miccosukee, Seminole, Yemassee, and various others? It is certain the land he dwells upon was taken from one of these tribes, or many of them, considering the wars of conquest in which they all engaged.

Or should we all just stop paying attention to this ill-educated, self aggrandizing young person and his ilk, and move on to weightier matters, such as the many of his peers who, without adequate knoledge themselves, seem Hell-bent on turning this country into a “Socialist paradise” … such as Venezuela.

I love it when libtards actually make the other side’s argument for them. If we lose the second amendment, exactly how many more Wounded Knee type of events would occur at the hands of .gov agents. The second amendment is designed to prevent those events from happening. I’d call Hogg a wingnut, but a wingnut is actually useful, whereas he isn’t.

I’m gonna talk to you guys not about the America we want to create, but the America we are going to create

Before he hit the big time, Lenin sat around for years, lowering property values in London, Zürich and Geneva while churning out tracts blasting capitalists and Mensheviks. That’s the way the serious movers & shakers do it. But this little twerp hasn’t even paid his dues yet.
